Apple Coffee Cake

This is really easy and so very, very good. I like to add a dollop of vanilla yogurt on top of my piece of coffee cake.

Ingredients

cooking spray

1 tablespoon flour, or as needed

Cake:

1/4 cup butter, softened

3/4 cup brown sugar

1 large egg

1/4 cup sour cream

1/4 cup vanilla yogurt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup all-purpose flour

3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 cups diced Granny Smith apple

Topping:

1/4 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons butter

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray; dust with 1 tablespoon flour.

Beat 1/4 cup butter and 3/4 cup brown sugar together with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color.

Beat egg into butter mixture. Add sour cream, vanilla yogurt, and vanilla extract to the mixture; beat to integrate.

Stir 1 cup flour, 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl; add to the butter mixture and beat to combine into a batter.

Fold apples into the batter. Pour batter into prepared baking dish.

Mix 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup flour, 2 tablespoons butter, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon together in a bowl using a fork to achieve a crumbly consistency; sprinkle over the top of the batter.

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
